US 'Star Wars' missiles will be in Europe in five years

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Sunday November 21, 2004 14:41author by redjade Report this post to the editors

'' In a reference to his plans to begin ordering the missiles next year, he said: "We've some significant money in the 2006 President's budget that we would begin to execute in October 2005." ''

The US wants to base at least 10 missiles in Europe for the "son of Star Wars" missile defence system within the next five years, The Independent on Sunday can reveal.

The Pentagon has also already decided to prepare for a major new missile interceptor base in Europe and is starting detailed studies to find the best site - including possible bases in the UK.

These proposals - which go far beyond previous statements about US plans in Europe - were disclosed by Lt-Gen Henry Obering, the head of the US Missile Defence Agency, in an exclusive interview with the IoS.

Lt-Gen Obering revealed that the US would start buying missiles for the new site as early as October next year, and would choose which European country would host the site soon afterwards.
